How to Apply
Preparation
Remove oil, grease, dirt, mildew, or any other surface contaminant with HP6000 Oil Grease Emulsifier (concentrated cleaner) or the solvent cleaning method (SSPC-SP1).
Ferrous metals: Before applying the product, remove loose rust and mill scale. For exposure to severe conditions, commercial blast cleaning is recommended (minimum cleanliness standard SSPC-SP6). Pépin Metal Conditioner can also help with cleaning and treating persistent surface rust.
Small surfaces can be cleaned with a hand tool (SSPC-SP2 method), a power tool (SSPC-SP3 method), or a power tool to achieve bare metal surface (SSPC-SP13 method).
A surface covered with tightly adhering rust can be coated with this primer provided it is subjected to mild conditions only.
Previously painted surfaces: Clean with HP6000 Oil Grease Emulsifier or with solvent as indicated above. Passeport Elite Biodegradable Degreaser also effectively cleans stains, grease, oils, and other contaminants from all surfaces.
Sand glossy surfaces and remove loose, flaking, or peeling paint before applying the primer.

To properly mix the product before application, use a drill with a mixing paddle at low speed for best results.
